Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9630093A1] This invention is a golf practice apparatus (10) having a resilient leaf spring (12) which serves as the striking surface, retained within a housing (14). Upon being impacted by a golf club, the center portion of the spring is depressed downwardly, and the ends of the spring, being free and unobstructed, translate outwardly to permit the club head to pass through the ball and over the striking surface (16). The practice apparatus accurately simulates the feel of a golf swing on natural turf, eliminates shock to the golfer's arms from a miss hit, and provides feedback to the golfer as to how well each swing is executed.
